Jose Carlos Esteban has been in the heavy civil construction industry for nearly 25 years. During that time, he has ascended through the Ferrovial ranks, from estimator and field engineer to CEO of Webber.  He has worked in numerous parts of the world including Africa, South America and Europe. 

Esteban graduated from the Madrid Polytechnic University and joined Ferrovial 1995. He worked as an estimator on the Tunisia Olympic Stadium and later joined the construction team as a field engineer. His next project relocated him to Chile. The Collipulli Temuco Tollway project involved the widening of 68 miles of motorway, 15 miles of new construction and 68 miles of rehabilitation of the existing motorway, as well as the construction of 21 interchanges between the towns of Collipulli and Gorbea. He started the project as a field engineer and left the project four years later as the site manager.

After Chile, Ferrovial promoted Esteban to a project in Portugal. He oversaw the design and construction of a 305 million euro toll road project, at that time the largest project in the history of the company. The massive project included moving millions of yards of dirt, with 50 percent of the project excavation requiring blasting. In 2006, he once again moved across the globe to become the General Manager of Indiana Toll Roads Contractors, LLC – leading Ferrovial Agroman’s first project in the US. The project consisted of designing and building the Indiana Toll Road, which included the widening of three different segments.

In 2009, Esteban relocated to Texas and became the CEO of Bluebonnet Contractors, LLC, a joint venture between Webber and Ferrovial Agroman US Corp., where he was responsible for the design and construction of the $1.5 billion North Tarrant Expressway Project.  The North Tarrant Express project was a 13.5-mile highway located in the Dallas-Fort Worth area that improved mobility along a series of highways vital to the region, including IH-820 and SH 121/183. 

In 2013, Esteban joined Webber as the Executive Vice President. Over the past 9 months, he served as Acting CEO and Executive Vice President until he was named President and CEO. During that time, Webber was awarded the largest hard bid project in its history, the $341 million reconstruction of IH 35 in Waco, TX for Texas Department of Transportation.
